Ex bloody actly! The doom and gloom on here is getting laughable. 'RIP CCFC' and 'the seats will be yellow and black' and 'Wasps are going to milk us dry.' Can we not at least wait and see what the CT discover, what Sisu say after being contacted by Wasps and see if the Trust can learn more...

Yep. Agree. None of us believe that they will build a new stadium. I am guessing therefore that the local council also believe that they won't build a new stadium and therefore will have to stay at the Rioch. Seems like our owners have just 2 choices. 1. Make this new deal work and work in...

Maybe it's just for the best then for you to go and top yourself now. The council are all a bunch of liars and even though some of the councillors are CCFC season ticket holders, they voted to destroy their own club, Wasps are going to milk us dry and force us to leave, even though they need us...

I have read it again and don't believe he is contradicting himself. Obviously the plan is based on Coventry City staying here, but he can't come out and say that, because if tomorrow Tim Fisher comes out and again says we are leaving, that would make the whole Wasps scheme look a joke. The...

Of course. That is obvious. And no, not that statement. That was yesterday. It was something he said in the press conference today.

When the story broke the only clear info we had was that of Wasps coming in, nothing else. I didn't want Wasps here but wanted to know how it affected Coventry City FC. I didn't feel strongly enough about protesting just on the one issue of the Wasp franchise. Wasn't happy about the principal...

Yep.

It's in Richardson's statement today. He talked of shared revenue. Maybe I am a little more trusting than you. We all know the council jumped the gun yesterday, when they should have held off and carried out consultations with all the parties involved, including fans, but I don't believe they...

I can't wait to get to see everyone's tackle.

By what Wasps are saying. I think we will get a better deal because they are going to open up more revenue streams to us. Don't know the exact details of the latest deal with ACL, but I am talking about before we left. It will be a better deal than that. Wasps want us here.

Best to pick a game when City are away. That would be the time for us all to go to Cov and back them I would have thought.

Last night, in the 2nd half, with all the kids on, it was very encouraging. Good crisp passing football, trying to go forwards, rather than sideways and back and some excellent prospects from that academy bunch that look like they could easily be first team regulars in the years to come. Was...

Okay, to counter the negative feeling; 1. We are back at the Ricoh. 2. Wasps want to work with us and seemingly want us there long term. 3. We are rid of the council's involvement in this club. 4. Yesterday we ended up with 9 talented kids on the pitch who had all come up through the academy...

If Sisu stay in charge, yes.

Well as it's going to be built with bamboo and fig leaves anyway, they thought it would blend in, in the Cayman Isles. I just pray to God they don't go off and actually build a new stadium. I am convinced we would be a laughing stock and I think it would be the most embarrassing, cheapo...

Yep. That's why I am now spent. What else can we do. The rug was pulled before we'd even known there was a rug there. Think the only thing we can do now is to boycott Wasps games and their merchandising etc. What else is there? This agreement is now cast in stone and there's nowt we can do to...

I don't see it as hypocritical at all. When I say moved on, I mean the deal is done. Nothing we can do. Had the deal not yet been done I could have campaigned against the sale. The Northampton thing was reversible. We wanted our club back home and Sixfields was supposed to be temporary. This...

I agree there is no victory. I have said I would now be happy with Sisu owning the Ricoh as long as caveats were put in place to protect the Ricoh.

Isn't he just acknowleging the fact that Sisu keep saying they aren't staying though and they might have to go it alone without them? Can't see much wrong with that statement at all. Put it this way, if he wrote 'Our business is based on the football club staying here' he'd be a complete...

Troy McLure? Doug McLure? :whistle: You might be on to something.
